Can people change the version twbt loads from the source code? It may be helpful for those who build unofficial dfhack and want to play twbt before the official one is released, since so far no one else has figured out how to change what version twbt would load with.

Pretty sure it is done in twbt.cpp though there was nothing saying r1, so why didn't it work for them on r0...

There is a version string contained in the compiled plugin, which is compared to the version string used to compile DFHack when the plugin is loaded - if they don't match, DFHack will refuse to load the plugin.
The code that actually embeds the version string in plugins is part of the DFHACK_PLUGIN macro:

#define DFHACK_PLUGIN(plugin_name) \
    DFhackDataExport const char * version = DFHACK_VERSION;\
    DFhackDataExport const char * name = plugin_name;\
    DFhackDataExport Plugin *plugin_self = NULL;

@mifki: btw isn't it possible to add these to the df structure tools, so finding them could be automated? Not that I'd know how to do that.

I was thinking about automating this process, at least for some time while changes in df are minor.
However it's not that difficult even manually - I spend more time downloading new releases for all platforms / copying configuration and all that stuff in order to test after I add support for new df version.
So probably now I will add required addresses to twbt but won't test on Windows / Linux.

Also I'll add a CMakeList file so that it will be possible to build twbt as part of dfhack.

DFHack 40.13-r1 is out

DFHack 40.13-r1 is out 

Will do it today or tomorrow. Want to further automate my builds - it's getting a bit boring to update for each version.

Someone make a build for 40.13 old gen? It doesn't have the added pluggins so it should be easier than the next gen. Mifki will be alseep by now so who knows when an official build will come.

[scamtank]

He committed the last pile of .13 changes not even an hour ago. Jesus, have a little patience.

[mifki]

Yep, 3.43 has support for 0.40.13-r1.

I decided to make some internal changes so the nextgen branch will be later.

Well I did look at both the release and the development branch before I posted that (I'm pretty sure I didn't see changes).  There was the chance he was still awake but it's very late for him.

Anyways thanks mifki.

is 3.43 a dev build that requires [compiling] dfhack to compile?

Looks that way.

What? It's on my dev build server http://build.mifki.com but you don't need to compile it.

[LeoCean]

They were probably use to the next gen branch where all the extra stuff doesn't exist. They probably didn't notice that you only need the 40.13 folder file + the overrides txt. It kept me from using the old gen at first.

[scamtank]

Uh, your build server looks slightly fucked. Did you change something?

It looks slightly preparing for the next major version. Old releases are on github.
